Help needed - Script

Hi guys,

Hoping someone can help me with the below.

- Write a script called 'home.sh' which takes a username as its argument and
will print out the home directory of that user as follows:

Code:
$ ./home.sh root
root's home directory is /root
$ ./home.sh nobody
nobody's home directory is /

If the command is used incorrectly, print a usage error to stderr:
